Replace HTML Static Site with WordPress Blog Pages
-
I currently have an offline business which has a static html site (really quite ugly) it has a PR of 3 (downgraded recently from a PR4!) and is 5 years old. It ranks quite well for it’s umbrella and longtails in Goog/Yah/MSN.
As my business is growing I want to modernise the site and plan to use a high wordpress page based theme so that I can create more product pages etc. I am fine with the bloggy php stuff and create pages for fun but….
In migrating from html to php how do I handle the backlinks that are currently incoming to my pages? I currently have pages titled, “Our Products”, “About Us”,”What We Do”,”Our Shops”,”index” which all receive inbound links some of which are .edu.
If I rename the exisiting pages from http://www.ourproducts.html to http://www.ourproducts.php, will the links still remain or will they disconnect themselves? I understood that pages default as html and then look for .php, will this default path save me??
Any help you can offer is greatly appreciated!
